The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1165 - Myrth: 136



Chapter 1165

(Unedited)

Behind the tightly closed door are several soldiers from the Glysko kingdom with their faces covered with cloth. The door is actually protected by an array that seems to be preventing the smoke from entering through the gaps.

The windows are already closed and the people inside are vigilantly waiting for something.

Suddenly, the door burst open which startled the rest of the people inside the room. Although they are prepared for such a thing to happen, yet seeing the mist entering the room made everyone want to run deeper into the room.

Then they saw several armed men wearing strange masks on their faces rush inside the building.

The sound of weapons clashing echoed in the air along with the groan of those who were caught by surprise as they unconsciously inhaled the mist in the air.

Many of them fell to the ground without a fight and died by the tip of the swords from the scouts of the Jimal kingdom.

While the battle is happening in the lower portion of the building, on the second floor, a man who is barely conscious is looking at a youth standing before him.

The man which seems to be a high ranking officer is actually a 10th level Ki fighter. Although he is still conscious, he could already feel his body becoming weaker.

"I… I did not… think that… the kingdom of Jimal… would… would have such an expert poison master amongst them. This… this is our defeat…" he said with a low tone.

The room is already in ruins and blood could be seen flowing down the arms of the youth in front of him.

One could tell that the youth might be standing but his wound is really heavy and it seems that he is barely standing on his own.

Xin Ja did not say anything and just watches as the man slowly closes his eyes.

When the scouts enters the room from the 1st floor… Xin Ja has already located the position of the strongest fighter in the enemy army.

The guy is a 10th level Ki fighter, just like his father. And it seems that the guy seemed to have already inhaled the mist but can still hold on because of his level. What Xin Ja did not expect is the strength of the concoction he had made. He did not expect that even a 10th level Ki fighter could be affected by the effect of the mist.

Along with the attack of the scouts from the 1st floor, Xin Ja also made his attack by bursting through a window.

The 10th level officer was caught off guard, but was still able to react when Xin Ja attacked him. Even with the use of his Ki buster, the high ranking officer was able to dodge and even retaliate.

In just one exchange, a long gash immediately tore apart Xin Ja's strong armor and even the bone rune he activated.

He was only able to survive because of his fast reflexes and quick and precise dodging.

However, the wound he receives is already deep enough.

"How dare a mere ant challenge me?" the high ranking officer said as he forces himself to wake up.

But the effect of the drug was truly potent, so he did not have a choice but to stab his leg just to regain his consciousness.

"Die!!!" the high ranking officer shouted as he brandished his Ki covered sword.

Swoosh!!!

A part of the building was immediately cut and a large hole appears at the side of the 2nd floor of the building. And because of this, more mist was able to enter.

The high ranking officer held his breath, but he noticed the 1st level Ki fighter enemy which he considered as an ant suddenly moved.

Clang!

They crossed swords and Xin Ja was flung to the side hitting the wall with a loud thud. Another gash could be seen and this time on his left arm. And on that hand, there is a powdered bone rune. The activated bone rune this time is deflection rune, this type of rune is almost the same as the one used in War Games, but the one Xin Ja used is stronger and could reflect even close combat weapon attacks.

But still… because of the disparity of their level, the High Ranking Officer received only slight damage and Xin Ja suffered in that exchange.

"Damn it! How could an ant-like you still stand after that blow?" the man said while standing unsteady.

Suddenly, Xin Ja threw his weapon with all his might which made the made quickly raise his sword to parry it.

He is wary of the enemy weapon as it is able to break through his Ki barrier. So he instead parries it to deflect the sword being thrown at him.

Yet he did not expect that the kid would use another type of weapon which he has not seen before.

It was the long-range weapon that the kid tried to sneak attack him with.

Although he was able to dodge the first strike, he still could feel the power of the weapon that the little guy is carrying.

Bang!

  The loud explosion echoed inside the room and the high ranking officer immediately slumps to the ground as he could feel something hitting his chest.

The force is significant to make him take a step back for about a meter before feeling his body becoming weak.

After the death of his opponent, Xin Ja immediately felt his body becoming weaker. He quickly eats a healing pill, and pour healing potion on his wounds.

The pain did not go away as he grits his teeth. When the potion and the pill began to take effect, Xin Ja fell on his knees in front of the corpse of the high-ranking officer.

At this time, the scouts have already finished the soldiers on the 1st floor and the 2nd floor and have barges inside the room. They immediately stop as they saw the high ranking enemy's lifeless body and the trembling figure of the small youth.

A scout wanted to take a step forward but their leader stopped him.

"Take care of the rest…" Xin Ja said as his figure suddenly became blurry.

"Wait!" shouted one of the scouts.

"Leader we should stop him. I saw that he is heavily wounded." Another one said.

"Can you stop him?" the squad leader asked.

They all noticed the dead corpse of a 10th level high-ranking officer from the Glysko kingdom and the devastation that happened on the second floor. They knew that the two have fought.

But what they did not understand is how that mere 1st level Ki fighter is able to defeat the enemy's high-ranking officer?

Though they knew to the mist's effect, they still have a hard time believing such a thing has happened.

The battle lasted for about 6 hours, and the group of scouts walks out of the mist-covered town.

At this time, they noticed the ground shaking. They then see a large number of soldiers marching towards them.

It took a while before the soldier arrives in the area outside the mist.

"What is the situation inside?" asked the captain of the scout's company where the scouting squad who attacked the town with Xin Ja.

"Captain… We… we have eliminated the enemies within the walls of the town. I don't know if there is still someone alive in there, but we were a bit flustered as there are far too many soldiers that we have to kill just to secure the town…" the scout squad leader reported.

"What?" the captain almost exclaimed loudly in disbelief.

If he told this to his superiors… who would believe him?

With only a handful of soldiers, they are able to eliminate more than 10,000 enemy troops. That was truly unbelievable.

So the captain looks at the squad leader with suspicion.

"This mist has provided us the way, captain. It causes people who inhale it to become asleep…" the scout added.

The captain thought for a while, then lifted his hand in the air.

"Get 50 men to enter the mist…" the captain said.

"Sir… you can't… the mist…" the scout leader wanted to stop his commanding officer.

"Do you want me to believe your story? Squad Leader Rao… if you are in my position, will you believe me if I say that with only 8 people, they defeated more than 10,000 soldiers?" the captain said with a frown.

The squad leader did not reply and just saluted as he takes a step back.

Around 50 soldiers began marching towards the thick mist.

Then suddenly everyone saw that the 50 soldiers began to wobble as they march deeper. Then they all fell to the ground after walking around 50 meters inside.

When the captain saw this, he looks at Squad Leader Rao's group.

"This is the effect of the mist." Squad Leader Rao explained.

"Then… how were you able to…" the captain wanted to ask but then he saw the team taking out a weird looking mask.

"We used this… I already sent the sample to the base…" Squad Leader Rao said while showing the mask.
